Battery for my Mod Build

Phones use about 1watt of power the lipo's in phones don't have same energy out put as RC lipo. The lipo's used in phones are a lot more stable than RC lipo's.

I'd hardly call them more stable... as one poor sod found out when doing a Samsung s5 destruction test.
Like anything. Treat then with respect, and they'll reward you.
Lipos to me are like woman, the minute you annoy one, they can bite. ;)
 
Well... if you ever want a tester. .. all I'd need is a charger as my old one is only for 2s and above... and with my brother xD

It's 4500mAh and has a USB charger as well as a fast charge port. Metal boxes have their own quirks. I'm still testing it before it goes to its new home.
 
Great thread, on a less serious note...

Can you guess what this is?

The sub charging doesn't phase me to be honest as I know how measly their output is compared to a charger. After all, the sub platform was designed as a data transmitting device, bit as a power device. Even if my current sub port for my phone kicks out 1.8a... .8 amps MORE than my xtar charger. :P
 
Phones use Li-ion and are different in many ways than Rc Li-po's.

Li-po
No liquid electrolyte, so never leak;
Can be made into various shape;
Can be made into thin battery, such as 3.6V, 400mAh, the thickness can decrease to 0.5mm;
Battery is transmutable and can be crooked: the maximum angle is 900;
High voltage in an battery: several battery with liquid electrolyte can be connected in series to get a high voltage only; the Li-polymer battery can get high voltage in an cell through multiplayer combination;
Same volume Li-polymer batteries’ capacity is two times of Li-ion battery.

Li-ion
High energy density;
High operation voltage;
No memory accumulation;
Long cycle life;
No pollution;
Light weight;
Very low self-discharge rate.
 
Exactly phone batteries are built so they can handle being dropped without getting an internal short RC lipo's are not.

So a phone battery is safe because you can occasionally drop it from 3 feet and it doesn't explode, but an RC LiPo which can be crashed at 40+ mph dozens, if not hundreds, of times before it gives up is not?
